Essential SMB Coverages
Small businesses require a bundle of protection to manage property, liability, and income risks.
Commercial Property Insurance
Protects your physical building (if you own it) and the contents—inventory, equipment, furniture—against covered perils like fire, theft, or severe weather.
Commercial General Liability (CGL)
This covers the common risks associated with customer traffic, such as a slip-and-fall injury or accidental property damage caused by an employee at a client's location.
Business Interruption (BI)
If a covered loss (like fire or major water damage) forces you to close temporarily, BI replaces the lost income and covers operating expenses (like rent and payroll) until you reopen.
Equipment Breakdown
Covers the cost of repairing or replacing essential systems like HVAC, refrigeration units (critical for hospitality), or specialized machinery.
Cyber Insurance
Designed to protect businesses against the financial loss resulting from a range of cyber threats and exposures, including social engineering, cybercrime, data breaches, and system interruption.
